Broad and medium weight with citrus peels, ginger snap biscuits. Sweet and with great depth. Apricot aromas develop then drift towards fruit salad. After a short time the wood comes to the fore and water helps to release baked fruit.

Campbeltown | Glen Scotia 15 Year Old
70cl / 46% vol
Distillery: Glen Scotia
This whisky has been gently matured in Glen Scotia’s finest American oak barrels before bottling. The signature nose has hints of vanilla oak, interwoven with the subtle notes of sea spray and spicy aromatic fruits.
Palate
A complicated palate where the initial nose would lead you to expect plump fruits, what you get is a surprisingly dry element. The palate fleshes out as the first impact of the nose fades. Adding water brings out the caramelised elements balanced with the wood elements expected of a 15 year old.
Finish
Firm and slightly dry.
